The "Installing and Operating 4.2BSD UNIX" document tells you to come up
with the "9" ("hp(9,0)") by taking the MBA number times eight, plus the
drive number.  Well, this is not quite correct.  Use the TR level (10, in
this case) minus 8, times 8, plus the drive number.

	((TR_level - 8) * 8) + Drive/Unit_number

This implies that you need to use "hp(17,0)".
